title: Radionuclide production at the Russia State Scientific Center, RIAR.
abstract: Radionuclide production capabilities of the Russia State Scientific Center, the Research Institute of Atomic Reactors (RIAR) are reviewed. Radionuclides routinely produced are as follows: transplutonium elements 243Am, 244-248Cm, 249Bk, 249Cf, 252Cf and high specific activity radionuclides 153Gd, 33P, 113,119mSn, 188W, 63Ni, 55,59Fe, 51Cr, 54Mn, 89Sr. Other HSA radionuclides (133Ba, 65Zn, 124Sb, 45Ca, 60Co, 192Ir, 169Yb, 170Tm, 75Se) are also available from RIAR. Besides radioactive preparations RIAR produces ionising neutron (252Cf), gamma (60Co, 192Ir, 75Se, 153Gd) and alpha (244Cm) sources for medicine, industry and research. A short description of the technology developed is presented.
